There is always something to look forward to at the MS Alliance! Check out what's coming up...

Under the guidance of Kaye Anderson or one of her trained volunteer assistants, participants are guided to listen to their own bodies and stretch only as far as it feels good. Kaye herself started practicing yoga at the age of 60 in order to help herself age more gracefully. She fully understands the natural resistance to movement the body accumulates with time, and she believes that patience, paired with persistence, is the only way to counter that resistance. No more post-class soreness and exhaustion! The pilot class received huge praise from participants! As a result, Somatic Chair Yoga is now scheduled to return on the 2nd and 3rd Wednesdays of every month. Participants are encouraged to bring a dish towel or non-stretchy scarf as an exercise aid.

Conversations on MS is an audience-directed conversation facilitated by a rotating slate of top Neurologists and MS Specialists. This month's guest speaker is Dr. Anna Shah, an MS Specialist with the UCHealth Neuroscience Center. These free events are wildly popular, and you are encouraged to register your spot as soon as possible.

NeuroPong - Colorado SpringsWith chapters in both Pueblo and Colorado Springs, the best medicine is always the one that comes with a dose of FUN! Come laugh and commune with your MSA friends for two hours of play that will work harder than you do! Dr. Antonio Barbara created the NeuroPong program after discovering that ping pong helped him regain much of the strength and control he had previously lost to MS. NeuroPong has since been sweeping the globe. Isn't it time you found out why?
